I want to share a story from one Thursday at the RHFH clinic. That morning, as I was walking through the courtyard, I noticed a woman sitting quietly among the patients. Her name was Rosemanette, and even before she spoke, I could see that she was carrying something heavy.
When I sat beside her and asked how she was doing, her eyes filled with tears. She told me she is a mother of five, and that some time ago her husband had suddenly left home without warning. She had been struggling to feed her children, take care of them, and deal with the pain of being left alone. Her body was tired, but her heart was even more tired.
I listened, and when she finished, I shared a few verses with her — reminders that God sees us even when life feels impossible. Then we prayed together, placing all her burdens in God’s hands. After her consultation, she thanked me quietly and went home with her medicine and a bit more peace than when she arrived.
About a month later, I saw her again — but this time, her whole face was different. She was smiling before she even reached me. She told me that the very same day we prayed together, she walked out of the clinic and found her husband waiting for her. He took her home on his motorbike, ready to come back and care for their family.
With so much joy, she said, “God is gracious. This clinic gives more than medicine — it gives hope.” Before she left, she prayed for all of us on staff too, asking God to protect us and strengthen us.
Moments like these remind me why our work matters — not just for the body, but for the heart and spirit too.
